Ânima Durius - Baco - Pinhão - Douro

Baco

Home / Boats / Baco

Description

This wooden classic “James Bond” style motorboat is ideal for tours in great charm and refinement on the Douro River.

Originally built during the fifty’s of the last century, at the Portuguese famous shipyard João Brites, her lines remind us of the Chris Craft’s of those times.

In 2016, she was completely restored and adapted for comfortable and unmatched private tours.

It  also allows faster and longer distances than the sailboat.

Unbelievable cruise on the Duoro River
My husband and I took a 2 hour cruise with Paolo on the boat Unbelievable. It was the perfect, relaxing way to see the Duoro River and the surrounding countryside. Paulo was so attentive to our needs, and answered all of our (many) questions about the vineyards and the history of the area. A wonderful experience.

Amazing boat ride on the Douro....you won't be disappointed.
what an amazing trip! We took the 2 hour boat ride on the Douro and had an amazing time. To have the boat for a private trip for just our family was perfect. The wine was great. The bean bags on the front deck were so comfy. Our captain answered all of our questions about the area and making wine. Scenery was beautiful!

Relaxing and entertaining
Day was overcast. Nonu (Nono) our captain,guide and private port wine man was great. We were on a private 2 person cruise. Knowledgeable and fun stories about the Douro valley. Let me captain for some of the ride. He was so courteous to make sure we had a great time. Relaxing and on 10 meter sailing craft

Do yourself a favour: do this!
Absolutely awesome from any perspective. The Douro Valley and River are just out of this world. The boat is comfortable and spacious. The skipper is the kindest person in the world. If you're in the area, do yourself a favour and book with these guys. Ideally, do something end of the day so you can enjoy the sunset. oh! It's my third time with them, which should tell you something about how good they are!

Amazing Private Douro River Cruise
Our 2 hour private tour for 2 couples with Captain Barbara was absolutely amazing. She was from a multi-generational family in the Douro and this was evident from her amazing knowledge of everything going on along the river. The boat was perfect for 2 couples and was a perfect way to see the Douro around Pinhao while sipping wine on the river.

Very nice option for a more private cruise experience.
Barbara, who captained the "Unbelievable," was a wonderful guide to all things Douro Valley. We enjoyed her enthusiastic, informative tour. Being on the water in a lovely boat with only the four of us instead of the hoards on other boats is the way to go. We only booked a one hour tour and given the boat is not speedy, the scenery didmy chage all that much. Perhaps a two hour trip would have been the way to go.

September boat trip
We took a two hour tour on the Baco captained by Claudia and had a wonderful time. The boat, scenery, and Claudia were all great. Claudia gave us information on the area, and tips for our trip. We had some great laughs and really enjoyed the the whole thing. Would love to visit again.

Fabulous River Cruise with Barbara!
We had a wonderful boat ride experience with Anima Durius on the Douro River! Our guide was Barbara. She was terrific! She enthusiastically explained in perfect English all about the local quintas and the history of the area. We learned so much while sipping wine and gazing at the most beautiful valley we had ever seen. We would highly recommend Anima Durius, and be sure to ask for Barbara!
